Oh. Google checkout integration is basically at the level of "proof of concept".... Satchmo doesn't have support for anything except flat-rate shipping; it's hardcoded in the cart.xml sent to google. For carrier-calculated shipping, the cart needs to include weights; which the cart.xml template does not have. This is looking like a larger task than I had anticipated -- what other payment processors does Satchmo _fully_ support? Or is there someone interested in helping me get Google Checkout support fully functional? Eli ------------------.
